I'm enjoying it.
Hopefully they release some match highlights soon.

So, the questions now are:
How many of these players will return to the 1st XV in 2020 (there are several year 11 and 12 students in this squad).
How many of these players will be poached by other schools.
How many of these players will end up with a Magpies (development) contracts, and who?
How many of these players will be poached by other provinces, and who?

From the HBT article below:
"We've qualified for the world championship again and as we only lose five or six players from this team we have to give that a crack again in April," Bird said after his Hurricanes champions beat Blues champions King's College of Auckland 27-14 in the Palmerston North-hosted National Top Four final. HBHS went to the Sanix World Youth Invitational Tournament in Fukoka last year and finished second with a 35-5 loss to Fiji's Ratu Kadavulevu School. That was always going to be a tough assignment after losing the bulk of the 2017 National Top Four-winning side and next year it shouldn't be as hard.I had totally missed that Hastings 2nd XV had won the Super 8 (2nd XV) competition!
Bird agreed it would be awesome to have the first XV honoured by being involved in next weekend's Blossom Festival parade in Hastings as was the case in 2017. However this time he would also like to see the school's national invitational under-15 tournament champions and Super 8 title-winning second XV also involved. "Yes I would definitely make all three teams available as this is the first year we have won all three of those competitions. It's also the second time we have had the Moascar Cup and the last time was in 2006," HBHS principal Rob Sturch said referring to the "Ranfurly Shield" of secondary schools rugby. King's had taken the Moascar Cup off St Kentigern's College earlier in the season. St Kentigern's had earlier taken if off St Peter's College of Auckland who took it off Napier Boys' High School last year.https://www.nzherald.co.nz/hawkes-bay-today/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503460&objectid=12265889
